Bas? sett, in the course ot a speech, said diplomacy was a new field to the colored race in this country. How they would succeed remained yet to be' seen.

He says those laws have not in any way been altered, and that the publbhed information on that point ' was incorrect. The attempt to effect a change was success fol in the State Senate, but failed in the other branch of the Legislature, and the law of the Stats sow stands as it was here? tofore. Tho etatuto pr?vidos that judges shall grant divorces lor a certain number of speci? fied causes, and any other cause fer which the court shall deem it proper that a divorce should be granted. This certainly offers latitude enough for dissatisfied husbands, and wives, aa \ well as for sharp lawyers and easy-going Judges. -A romance of the Chicot Noir crevasse ia told in the New Orleans papers.

Other ber parente insisted * anon giving her band. She vainly remonstra? ted, but the day van fixed, the party assem? bled, end the unfortunate girl, in a bewiliered and half unconscious slate, compelled to "stand up" for thc ceremony. Justas the clergyman approached that part of the ser rice which required ber assent, there came a roar and a crash. . The river, had burst ita banka close to tito house.1 The guests fled i n terror, the bride fainted before eho had said "I will," and the rejected suitor, rushing in, ?arriod her off and beforo night had her safely man ied. Tho other, who bad promised on his part to love and cherish, without receiving the reciproodl pledgo, thinks of prosecution. -The Tennessee election will Of course be a trend and proscribed affair, as usual; but this timo it is dog eat dog with Beater and. Stokes. Tho convention was one continuous row. A Souter men grabbed the chair before the door was opened, and a guard of police had io Ito called to keep the Stokes men from ??chin? him out. Then, by the strategy of an adjournment, the Stokes party managed to seat ?se of their aten tai the o'jsJr, whereupon the ' Senieritee wouldn't allow a word io be tittered, saseept hooting, and howling, and singing. After vain endeavors to restore order, ?for the sake ol the party," tho tumult increased, oaths and insults were freely bandied about, furni tars waa smashed, pistole wore drawn, and the aonvontion adjourned, some half-dozen mem Bars marching to the station-house under guard of the police.

Ona of the difficult pointe about tho' whole matter in dealing with it diplomati? cally, U that our own Supremo Court recog? nized the belligerency of tho Booth seventeen dayB boforo the Queen's |>ro3lam?tion was is? sued, and, so far at least aa Spain is concern? ed, we are ou record in oar diplomatic oorros ppndonoo os thnnkin* that oountry for not bonni give? moro substantial aid and oounto-. D?uoo to tho rebellion. The Now York. Times' correspondent states authoritatively that ' tho Administration Md not tho slightest intention of resorting to immediato' hos? tilities, and will not adopt a belligerent attitude without tho gravest provocation. Tho President and bis Cabinet ore en? tirely in accord on the point that a foreign war would be extremely disaetious at tbe present time. Although we are not by any means so enfeebled as to shrink from a contest if forced upon us, Btill every effort will bo used lo steer clear of foreign complication until our great indebtedness has beoome more manage? able, and until the way towards specie pay? ments has boen cleared. It is stated on tho authority of one of tho secretaries tha'. the Ex? ecutive is now extremely anxious io reference to the point made by Mr. Sumner in bis speech as to what constitutes a blockade. .But Mr. Sumner's argument as a whole is not by any means the reflex of the views ol tho President and Cabinet." President Woolsey recently said in a lecture at Yale College that war is not justified in the case of the Alabama until tho British Government refuse to submit thc question to a proper tribunal, and ono satis? factory to the United States. Up to that point it is purely a question of a poaoeful nature.. CHARLESTON. SATURDAY MORNING, MAY 29, 1869. Tbe State Debt. Aocording to the report made by the Comptroller-General to the General Assem? bly, tho debt of the State of South Carolina on Ootober 1st, 1863, was as follows : * Three per cent, stock.. :. ! .$ 88,833 60 Six per cent, (fire loan) stock- 314 458 89 Six per cent. (State House) stock. 2,286.600 00 Six per cent, bonds and stocks.... 1,282,971 27 Five per cent, (fireloan) bonds... 484,444 51 Six per cent. ( Blue Ridge Railroad) bonds..... 1,000,000 00 $6,407.806 27 Interest overdue to dato and un? paid. ..-..i.,. 484,7?! 52 $5,842,097 79 Bonds issued January 1,1869, to ; redeem bills of the Bank of the State. 1,088,000 00 Total debt at date..86,875,997 79 The State has assets of the nominal value of $2,764,660, which may one day produce $100,000 br $200,000; so that we have practically to meet the interest on, and provide for the payment of, neatly $7,000,000. AB security for this debi WS have real and personal property to the amount of $200,000,000; property whiob is increasing in value every day and will be worth half as much again as soon as the Radioal snake is scotched or killed outright. This ia Sp ample margin, sad makes it seem unreasonable that the ?ix per nant, bonds of the 8tate should sell at 75, at which rats they wOi pay 7$^er cenC on the invest? ment, : ir;i;?suiouw MW oven made, wo believe, for the payment of the interest due on sad after Juf? 1, and thia Interest wiU oontinue to be paid, not by rtew^oons, but by the proceeds of taxation. . - One lof two considerations must then be tits sans? of the want of confidence in our State securities. The capitalist, either doubts; tbs good faith of oar people or fears that our Radioal government wiU nils up the debt so high ss to bankrupt tbs State. In regard to tia? first of these considera? tions, it may be said unequivocally that there will bs ne repudiation of tbs State debt of South Carolina, life were forced' by the sword of tho enemy to repudiate the war debt of the State, -a thing which the people still regard with a feeling of wounded pride; but no power, short of an invading army, can compel tbs Stab? to slough off the debt whiob she now owes. In regard to the constitutionality of the ant of Assembly authorizing the i?sue of bonds in exchange for the bills of the Bank of the State, there Isa wide difference of opinion; but business sense and oommeroial asumen will prevent any attempt to repudiate even these bonds, beoauie, to taint a. part of the debt is*to oast suspicion on tbs whoie. in getting rig of $1,000,000 we should Impair the value of $6,000,000, and make it im-, possible to obtain a loan at ?eassuable rates, whatever our necessities. We, therefore, take it for granted thai every dollar of the present State debt wiU be promptly and faithfully paid--not by the Radicals, but by the anti Radical party, wkich will, be? fore two years are over, oontrol and govern the State. ' ' " ' '"' The second f?onel?eration- thit tbs Sw ioals will run up a debt so largs that it can? not be paid-is far more grave. They have but otis: object, and that is to make money and make ir quickly; nor Will atty ons doubt that tas whole party would willingly run up our debt to $20,000,000, if by so doing they could feather their own foul neats. Bnt publio plundering on a large scale is the privilege of tbs few who sit in high places. The crowds who ope their mouths and ory have naught but the crumbs and scraps. They are joaloug and noisy, and will oppose any s?beme for largely increasing the State debt, unless they may have a finger in tho pie. Whether the State debt,' then, is to be enlarged, depends on the willing? ness of the.arch-plokpookets ,to share tbs plunder with the mob. We believe that the head men. can make asmuch as they desire without doing this. They . will take the trimmings and stoking* of railroad bills and appropriation 'billa. This may and should satisfy their appetite, asst a? that? is still sose power in publie opinion the assist?t Assembly aaay ba smsas dad to ooma to a lott step and let She debt alone. It ls clear enough, then, that our Stat? d eb t is If all asea? ed, and jost as ?lear that our Stats securities will not o?ttmaud their full arias as long as the Radieaf* rule the Stets. E very man who ?wa* State s*5*ri* ties, or who pays taxes, ia intered in the downfall of South Carellan Radioalis?. How much is he interested? Tbe amount sf bis interest is the diff?rence bstween 76 and 05 as the selling pries of th* Stats sin per cento, and between ena-hntf e* ons per saint, er one-third sf ?ne per ?ai, sad tkn+Mrih, sf' p? ^Vtas fW?y tax upon b*s property. Tile Cry for ?'Protewtio?." The Paris Cosmopolitan regards the cry here for protection as humiliating, and says indignantly: Tboro is somet&ng ofteneivo in this word ?protection" to a aetf-retfiat and independent people. To ask for pro? tection of any sort is a sign of weakness, of inferiority. Infants require protection, and women used to want protectors. Small and feeble States, called by oourtesy * 'powers,'' also have to be protected by their superiors. But when a great nation clamors to hare ita productions, agricultural or mechanical, protected by tariffs, it outs a sorry figure in the eyes of all the world by confessing ita inability to copo with its rirais. We do not understand how a proud and independent American oan read the daily , appeals of the New York Tribune, and other high-tariff organs, for "protection," without a blush of shame or a flush of in? dignation. I? rotor ti nu against whom cr what ? The labor, skill, capital, or soil of other countries ? Ridiculous nonsense, monstrous injustice! Amerloa needs no protection, and her legislators should proud? ly spurn the narrow-minded, illogical, il? liberal, and humiliating idea. Whatever America cannot, make, or produoe, better and cheaper than any other nation, let her take those articles of commerce from others in exchange for her own unrivalled pro? ducts or fabrics. The doctrine of protection lacks the first element of justice: in plain English, it is downright robbery. To pro? tect one man's business, be he farmer or manufacturer, you must tax another's. If the New England cotton spinners must be protected or subsidized by the government, why not the Southern cotton grower ? This old tariff quarrel had much more to db in bringing about the late oivil war than the slavery questioc; and we regret to say ?bat the fight is still going on. We regret still more that the present party in power ia the United States hold, to the protection dogma as cae of its corner-stones. Thia, if | no other causea were at work, will, sooner or later, seal the fate of the Republican party. It is based on a falsehood, and, therefore,, it o&nuot long endure. On turn? ing te France, we are still more surprised to find a party clamoring for protection, for the repeal of the (comparatively) free-trade treaty with England. The movement origi? nated with a few selfish manufacturers, led off by a Rouen deputy, largely interested in cotton mills, we believe. A committee of the Corps L?gislatif haa got the matter under their consideration. We trust there is too much wisdom and logic ia the legis tature of France to listen to the interested appeals of the protectionists, Who are not ashamed to oonfess thal they oahnot com? pete with England in the manufacture of | certain articles. Then let them go to Eng? land for these articles, and pay for them in their duty-free wines, gloves, jewelery, sad articles de Parla. Free trade is the gospel of commerce, the salvation of na tiona. And yet, thus far, the moat advanced gov? ernments have only approached it. Rev le wa. L.
